Hipshot Ultralites rattling sound.

I am not sure if this is the right forum or not, because there isn't a hardware forum...

I got the Hipshot Ultralite 3/8" Clover Key Chrome tuners on my new Warmoth neck, but i am getting a buzzing sound from the headstock on the open E string.
When i shake the headstock back and forth, i also hear something moving around or something.
I am almost certain that it is one of the tuners, because the string retainer and the neck itself are rock solid.

Are these tuners supposed to rattle around?

Not under string tension. Well, the tuners anyway.
